Upon the death of his grandfather, Muhammad’s guardianship passed to his uncle Abu-Talib, who never converted to Islam but continued to show love and protection for his nephew despite extreme hardships and dangers. They came out much stronger and with a clear message that nothing could deter the Prophet or the Muslims from their faith.

The German orientalist Gernot Rotter produced an abridged (about one third) German translation of The life of the Prophet.The Prophetﷺ Described weaves together classical accounts of the appearance and character of Allah's finest creation, using the narrations of those closest to him. The Qur’an affirms that a Prophet has been sent to every nation, There is no community that has not had a warner. In the Arabic language the word sīra or sīrat ( Arabic: سيرة) comes from the verb sāra, which means to travel or to be on a journey. Other primary sources of the sīrah include books written about the characteristics of the Prophet ( shamā’il); books written about proofs of his Prophethood ( dalā’il); and general history books of Mecca and Medina.

Since they did not belong to the Banu Muttalib or Banu Hashim tribes, they were not a part of the boycott.

His sons died during early childhood, but his daughters lived and got married; only Fatima had descendants. A comprehensive work based principally on authentic narrations, unaffected by objections of orientalist scholars.It is commonly translated as biography because the reader travels the path of that person, following in their footsteps.
